Landauer to Horkheimer (10/4/1936): “Because I love Freud, I would say we shouldn’t make impossible demands of the old man for an unheard-of intellectual renewal. So I don’t hold his occasional crude lapses against him, like the stupid remarks on communism in the new introductory lectures.” lol
Reading about the Blue Qur'an today, and...just...wow. Gold Kufic script (likely gold leaf, not shell!) on indigo-dyed parchment (technique uncertain! Brushed? Dipped? Pressed? No one knows!). Written in the early ʿAbbāsid period (ca. 800), place uncertain. 2024 research suggests Cairo or Baghdad.
If you have the Carrot Key, you should go to Dalaam and give it to the bunny at Pink Cloud. If you don't have the Carrot Key, you should go to Magnet Hill. You should be able to find the Carrot Key there.
The infamous "WET YOURSELF..." Super Mario Sunshine print ad is often posted online without context, leading many to believe it is fake or fan-made. However, it is very much real, appearing on page 130 of issue 119 of the British Nintendo Official Magazine.

the fact that he and wojnarowicz would take the latter’s car to outer borough junkyards together and the one would take photos and the other would collect for sculptures. Oh ouhhhh
this experience where every ad has to be a blindingly bright video on a digital screen is one of the worst aesthetic developments in New York City for a long time. your neighborhood train station does NOT have to be Times Square

The legendary stretch of autumn weather continues in NYC!! High temperatures reach the lower 60s and while it's a bit chilly this morning, it's gorgeous out there for most of the day - sunny with a light breeze. The vibes are excellent!!
A viral video claims a therapy horse plays the piano to wake patients from anesthesia. Real therapy horses help with balance and rehab, but this piano story is almost certainly staged or trained.
